Hi there, it's Monday and time for a new Challenge over at Simon Says Stamp. This week the theme for the challenge over at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog is Thanks/Thanksgiving and I've created a Thanksgiving recipe book to hold all of the recipes I cook each year that have been passed down from my aunts and grandmas. I used a Tim Holtz worn cover which I covered with linen fabric that had been stenciled with the Autumn stencil. Then I added the back of a cabinet card, a doily die cut and little "plate" that I created from 2 circle dies, and placed my silverware on top of it. I then tied some BURLAP through the spine and added some more idea-ology pieces.
Be sure to stop back and play along with us in a new challenge each Monday!
Simon Says Stamp is giving away a $50 gift voucher that will go to one random challenge entry. So please join us for this week's challenge at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. You might also be on our Friday Designer Spotlight. Good luck, I can't wait to see what you make!
